I checked in at the Regal Hotel at 10 P.M. As things seemed quiet I put in most of my time sitting around the lobby. Mr. Miller, the proprietor, remained on duty until 1 A. M. Friday morning. Then his granson came on duty and remained on duty until 7:30 A. M. Things seemed very quiet during the whole night. I heard Mr. Miller say that the police officers let all the places in town run wide open but were watching him very closely, and if he should let a girl in his place they would be up inside of ten minutes and arrest him. It seems that Mr. Miller doesn't get along very well with the Police Department lately. I heard John Garten talking to Sam Withrow, grandson of Mr. Miller, and night clerk, about taking Mrs. Penn, of Room No. 201, out for a ride and Sam Withrow told Garten to get a car and he would get Mrs. Penn and a friend of hers to go any night we could get ready. Friday morning at 7:30 A. M. Garten called the porter from his room and told him to come there, which the porter did. Garten told the porter to fry to send Mrs. Penn to his room. The Porter left and was gone about twenty minutes. Then he returned and said he was unable to send her up. Mrs. Penn appeared to be afraid to make a date with him. Garten again sent the porter back and told him to explain to Mrs. Penn that he was leaving town at noon and that he wanted to see her. The porter then returned and said that he had done his best but she was afraid to come. At 10 o'clock Garten asked the porter to get him a half pint or whiskey. The porter left the room and was gone about fifteen minutes. Then he returned looking for an empty bottle as he said he didn't have any more to put it in. After he left the room I heard him tell the maid on the third floor that he couldn't find any more bottles. I was unable to hear what the maid told him, but in five minutes time he was back with a real full half
